Confusion (Part two)

Sparks!

Stick clashed against scales.

Dragon scales!

An odd mix-up.

But the fight was odder.

Darkness was everywhere.

And yet they could all see.

There were spectators but they could only watch. Their words never came through.

"Why? Who are you and why did you want to fight me?" Theo said, barely able to keep up.

He'd used everything, all his skills, all the stacks.

But it wasn't good enough. Even with the overpowered stick, he got nowhere. 

And his enemy?

The moment Theo used Analyze on him, was the moment he lost all hope of even dreaming of winning.

After all, the emperor had more than a thousand-fold bigger better stats than him. And that too was the weakest of his stat- magic.

He'd partially transformed and the shirtless part of his body was covered with thick draconic scales.

The emperor was a monster, in every sense of the word.
